Dolph Lundgren in Talks for "Conan"

Director Marcus Nispel has already sent out the casting call for his upcoming "Conan" film, the franchise that made Arnold Schwarzenegger a star. And while we wait to find out who Nispel will end up casting as the lead, Dolph Lundgren is already in-talks for a supporting role.

Talks between Lundgren and the "Conan" people started during the making of Sylvester Stallone's "The Expendables," since the two projects share the same producers.

"I've talked to the producers about doing something for 'Conan,'" Lundgren told MTV News, adding that "it's too early" to talk about the details. He is expecting to find out more next year.

Taking a look at the casting call, Lundgren might be a good fit for the Khalar Singh part, described in the movie's casting call as "commanding in size and manner, a warlord and formidable warrior, brilliant, cruel, weathered and tanned by the many campaigns he has waged and won." Other parts in the casting call include Conan's father, Corin, and a mercenary named Lucius.

I got to say, no matter how bad it could turn out, I would kill to see Dolph as a villain in a big budget Hollywood movie. I'm thinking he could be an awesome bad guy in the Clancy Brown mold. I get that he isn't a master thespian, but, come on, Dolph in a potential blockbuster! Nostalgia is getting the best of me, sorry...

Why remake such an original. WHY WHY WHY. Its like they want to anally rape and piss all over the stories of an overly buff guy who kills things. I MEAN sh*t. THE Original was pretty good, hell James Earl Jones was the bad guy. f*ckING DARTH VADAR VOICE WAS THE BAD GUY. YOU cant beat that. even with an inflatable doll.
